I just got a professional picture back on this knife. The handle is 1912 Bodark fence post. The spacers are world war two practice bomb material. The blued file worked frame is mild steel. The guard is wrought iron wagon wheel from my great great grandfather George Kromer of Spicewood Texas. The blade is a 33 layer Damascus billet, the other half of which was used in my forged in fire final weapon, the Qinglong Ji.
